izlanda'nın 2011 eurovision şarkı yarışmasına katıldığı şarkı.
sözleri:
Some say Im a bit of a fool,
sitting on a hill and counting raindrops.
Keep thinking I just wanna go
to the peaceful place I know,
that I call home.
But oh oh oh its time to go, Ill see you, Ill see you soon.
Cause I cant wait for tomorrow
to say the things I wanna say,
your smile will always lead my way.
I cant wait, Im coming soon,
I just wanna see your face again.
Some say Im a bit of a fool.
Driving down the road I stop to listen.
I hear your laughter in the trees,
your whisper in the breeze,
my love is you.
But oh oh oh its time to go, Ill see you, Ill see you soon.
I cant wait for tomorrow
to say the things I wanna say,
your smile will always lead my way.
I cant wait, Im coming soon,
I just wanna see your face again.
Cause no one, knows his where or when.
When my time on earth comes to an end,
then Ill find you and I know that you will be my love again.
I cant wait for tomorrow
to say the things I wanna say,
your smile will always lead my way.
I cant wait, Im coming soon,
I just wanna see your face again,
Cause I cant wait for tomorrow
to say the things I wanna say,
your smile will always lead my way.
I cant wait, Im coming home to you.
I just wanna see your face again,
Im coming home.
avenged sevenfold'un yeni albümü hail to the king'in 8. şarkısıdır, bana göre albümün en iyilerindendir, gerek şahane solosu ile, gerek ise shadows'un yorumu ile süper olmuş.
I've been away
Searching for a reason
Another purpose to find
I've sailed the seas
Fought my many demons
I've looked to gods in the skies
I've stood in hell
Where many had to suffer
I stared the devil in the eyes
Walked many roads
To witness ancient idols
And found the great Gates of fire
Had many storms
Question my conviction
Gave armies reason to rise
The hangman's searching
For bones he can borrow
While I escaped in the night,
Fight or flight...
Live again
All roads end
I'll be coming home
Tend your light
'Cause on this night
I'll be coming home
Escape the hail
Of calculated mortals
And drank the blood of a king
The desert rain
Has washed away direction
Had angels looking after me
So it seems
Live again
All roads end
I'll be coming home
Tend your light
'Cause on this night
I'll be coming home
My story ends
Not far from where it started
My weary limbs have grown old
I've seen the world
Through the eyes of a nomad
Home is where the heart is
I've been told
So I go
Live again
All roads end
I'll be coming home
Tend your light
Cause on this night
I'll be coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
bonus track ile birlikte albümün en iyi şarkılarından olan parça. özellikle gates solosu çok fenadır.shadows ise her zamanki gibi inanılmaz. evet bu parça kesinlikle olmuş.
bir a7x şaheseri, ortadaki ve sonda ki sololarla sonsuza dek dinlenecek şarkılar arasındadır, iron maiden sound'u olan şarkı a7x'in en iyi 5 şarkısı arasındadır bana göre, hatta 3 falan bile olabilir.

And the blood will dry
underneath my nails
and the wind will rise up
to fill my sails
so you can doubt
and you can hate
but I know, no matter what it takes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming home
let the rain wash away
all the pain of yesterday I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming...
Still far away
from where I belong
but it's always darkest
before the dawn
so you can doubt
and you can hate
but I know, no matter what it takes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming home
let the rain wash away
all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits
and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming...
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming home
let the rain wash away
all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits
and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
tell the world I'm coming... home
muhteşem bir iron maiden şarkısı. adamların hemen hemen tüm şarkılarında müzik ve duyguyu bir arada yaşayabiliyorsunuz. coming home da bunun en güzel örneklerinden birisidir. özellikle solosu muhteşemdir. en sevdiğim slow metal parçalarından birisidir.
galli şair owen sheers'ın zamanın akışını anlattığı şiiri. basit gözükür ama okuması zevklidir çünkü anlam bakımından zengin bir şiir.
My mother’s hug is awkward,
As if the space between her open arms
is reserved for a child, not this body of a man.
In the kitchen she kneads the dough,
flipping it and patting before laying in again.
The flour makes her over, dusting
The hairs on her cheek, smoothing out wrinkles.
Dad still goes and soaks himself in the rain.
Up to his elbows in hedge, he works
on a hole that reappears every Winter,
its edges laced with wet wool –
frozen breaths snagged on the blackthorn.
When he comes in again his hair is wild,
and his pockets are filled with filings of hay.
All seated, my grandfather pours the wine.
His unsteady hand makes the neck of the bottle
shiver on the lip of each glass;
it is a tune he plays faster each year.
